Readers will find common threads
of concern—moral, political, metaphysical, aesthetic—that link these
disparate works of fiction. Yet each is distinctive and each bespeaks
an intense imagination, a philosophical bent, a sophisticated literary
orientation, and a professional attention to craft. Her works deserve
to be better known. Betty Lambert lived and wrote defiantly, subversively;
she faced all of her life struggles, including her death, with extraordinary
courage.
